GER Brennan’s sudden resignation as Louth boss on Tuesday fuelled speculation that he’s set for the Dublin job.
Ever since Dessie Farrell revealed that their defeat to Tyrone was his last game in charge Brennan has been the front-runner to replace him.



And that train of thought only gathered further steam when the Wee County announced that Brennan was opting to bring an end to his tenure.
He had completed a two-year term but there was an option for a third. Clearly he would’ve been wanted back having led them to their first provincial title since 1957.
Among those to pinpoint him as the best man for the now vacant Dublin job was Armagh great Aaron Kernan.
He argued: “He would be the obvious one for me. The reality is the success he had with Louth was really just to build Ger’s CV.
“I am sure somewhere down the line that he would have loved to have a go at the Dublin job.
“It may have come a year or two sooner than what he expected but he is the obvious one.
“Maybe Declan D’Arcy, but he is more of a coach. He seemed to build a brilliant rapport with those Dublin players while he was there.
“And maybe a left-fielder in Jason Sherlock or something like that there — but he is more of a coach rather than being the main man.
“I would think Ger would be the frontrunner at this stage if he was to step away from Louth.”
Here, SunSport delves into Brennan’s life beyond the Gaelic football pitch:
